Don’t waste your money

Don’t waste your money on this glorified stop watch lol this is terrible. A couple tips you can look up on Google and a stop watch. Cost me almost 7 dollars.

Our baby sleeps now!

After around 10 weeks of the ‘4 month sleep regression’ my husband and I hadn’t had more than 2 hours of sleep in one go. It affected all aspects of our lives! We finally downloaded this app and after 2 nights, baby girl slept for 8 hours, fed then slept another 4. A few weeks on and she’s still doing so well. App could be improved by allowing you to edit sleeps if you click sleep but then she proves to still be awake but overall it did the job for us perfectly!

Cry it out technique

The first piece of advice involves putting my baby down and leaving them to cry for 10 minutes, only helping them if they cry so much they’re sick- and even then only to change them and then continue to ignore them. This is NOT for me. If I’d known this was a cry it out method I would never have paid and downloaded. This should be clear in the app description to prevent others from wasting their money. I struggle to understand how an NHS midwife has not been trained that responsive care is best practice.

Best £3.99 I’ve ever spent

When our 5 month old daughter started waking up every 30-45 minutes throughout the night we knew we had to do something, we were beyond exhausted...this app gave us enough confidence and guidance to embark on sleep training. Without it we would have struggled to stay consistent and I’m sure that sleep training would have been much more difficult. We now have a much happier rested little girl and family as a whole. We also spoke to Sam by telephone and she gave us great advice and reassurance, thank you Sam, this app is brilliant. Can’t recommend enough.

Brilliant

This app is so easy to use. My little one has always settled herself by spitting her dummy out before settling herself to sleep before her 4 month sleep regression them became reliant on her dummy. Only used twice so far but she’s managed to settle herself in the initial ten minute period without her dummy. Before I was running straight back in and giving it her. I also messaged Sam for some advice around this and she was super quick at responding and very helpful!

Useful app

I’ve been using this app as soon as my baby turned 4 months as I was getting into a day routine and transitioning to a cot. It offers great guidance on what to do and little steps you can take. Sam is great as I met her at an event and she is very supportive if you need further advice.

Very useful

We’ve read about baby sleep training so we had an idea about how it works, however the app has been extremely useful especially on the first night where we were unsure how to respond to our baby trying to fall asleep. I recommend it to all parents considering sleep training.

LIFE CHANGING

This app provides the perfect step-by-step guide for parents to sleep coach their babies. It provides guidance for 2 different methods for two age groups, and uses a Cry Scale judged by parent, to direct your response. Reassuring and easy to use!

Response from developer

Hi , thanks for the great review and hope your little one is sleeping better now 👏

Absolutely Brilliant! 10/10

My baby was sleeping through from 8 weeks, then for some reason she decided to wake up every hour at 6/7 months old! Being at the end of my tether, i searched for an app to help. This app is amazing. If you stick with it, be consistent, it works! My baby was sleeping through by the third night! And still is now. She is still a tinker for nap times tho, but I can deal with that better knowing she sleeps at least 11 hours a night solid. Thank you Sam for this wonderful app ❤️

Sleep regression help!

This app is brilliant!! We were in search of something to guide and advise us through the dreaded “four month sleep regression”. We really found the crying stages and suggestions really useful. Following the comfort and soothe method, our baby now sleeps in his cots for nap times and self soothes himself to sleep. Finally we get some sleep!!!

Amazing

Not only is this app helping this single mama get her 1 year old to sleep train but during this extremely difficult time the support and almost immediate feedback has been beyond helpful and wonderful.
I also like the wording used throughout the app and encouraging words.

It really works!

I’ve been using the app for about a week and have seen some fantastic results. My breastfeed baby went from waking ever 2-3 hrs to sleeping 5-7 hr stretches. I was really worried about cry it out methods but nothing else was working for my 4 month old so I thought I’d give this a try. Firstly, It’s so helpful having the app to keep you consistent and guide you through the process as you coach your baby to sleep better. It’s so hard hearing your baby cry but done under control and with consistency it really does work. The app and coaching helps keep you occupied while your baby cry’s and reminds you that everything is ok. Secondly, the technique in the app is really gentle and not like other cry it out methods. It teaches you how to really listen to your baby’s cry’s and respond accordingly. Lastly, I can’t recommend the support in the app any more highly, I sent a query in the app and i had a very helpful response straight away. I highly recommend the app and services provided, best few quid you’ll spend on getting better sleep for your baby.

Response from developer

Hi , that's great news and I am so pleased The Baby Guru has helped . The methods I have used for many years and helped hundreds of families , now with the app can help thousands . Sleep well The Baby Guru

Paid only

This app is a scam. The idea of it is good but they don’t tell you that it’s $1.99 until after you’ve downloaded it and watched the demo. There should be a free or trail version considering there’s no reviews and it’s a new app!

Response from developer

Hi , I am sorry you feel this way . The 1.5 minute video shows how the app works and that there are different methods for different ages giving reassurance repeatedly to little ones while they learn to self settle , along with reviews and a 4+ star rating it's helping many hundreds of families .

Amazing App

This app was super helpful. It helped us get our baby quickly into a routine. So impressed. Full of useful tips and advice. Well worth a download.

Not for Sleep Training Beginners (and few tweaks needed)

If you are brand new to trying to get your baby napping/sleeping though this is going in at the deep end a little. This is great for those that already “get” and have routine and structure. I had just lost my way with baby no 2 and this has been a great tool to stop me taking the perceived easy way out and just go in to rock my crying baby. Sam’s online assistance is the best bit. Apart from that it’s essentially a stop watch. If you could edit sessions to amend start and finish times it would provide a much more accurate graph of the progress being made (as in those times you think baby has dropped off, you click Baby is Asleep, then the little so-and-so starts up crying again. As it is now you have to start it as a new session even though it’s clearly the same one). Not awful by any means, but I think if you’re truly in trouble with a sleepless baby and have no idea what to do this is a little further along the Sleep Training Journey than you need.

Great app, really helpful!
It tells you what to do and guides you.

Tired mummy

I used the app last night and it really helped to guide me through what I should/shouldn’t be doing to create good sleep patterns. Sam is amazing - thank you xx

Honestly Brilliant

I’ve not seen or found an app that does anything like this. The immediate support it gives me and my partner is fantastic. Going on the website and getting further support from Sam has been genuinely invaluable. We’ve learnt so much and are so thankful we found this. Couldn’t recommend getting it enough!!!
